Thank you for creating such a beautiful video tribute to Mary. I worked with her at Maclary Elementary School. She was a strong, hard worker who never complained. I used to run into her at Shop Rite early in the morning and we would ‘catch up’ on our life events. May you find peace in the days ahead.

Jerry, you are a great person, and I feel this is because of in part due to the type of mother you had. I am sincerely sorry for your loss, but I feel she is in a much better place. Hold your head high that you had such a great experience with a great lady. I never had the chance to meet her, but if she is anything like you, I definitely missed meeting someone special. You and your family are in my family’s prayers.

I have so many memories that I shared with her. My heartfelt sorrow to her family. I pray you will find peace and comfort in all the memories that you shared with her.
